looks like you have files/directories from an older installation mixed with the current installation.

what version/build you had before? and what build you updated to? can you download the latest build 1418 and do a fresh install?

I had v0.91 build 1344 installed and updated to the version Zimbra Desktop automatically downloaded and installed. I did try downloading it manually and rerunning the update (build 1418). It failed at uninstalling previous version.

Here is the error if I go to "http://localhost:7633/zimbra/desktop/login.jsp"

HTTP ERROR: 500

By doing a fresh install. Do you mean deleting my install directory and running the install? Because I cannot run the uninstall program to remove it.

same error - another scenario

I got the same FileNotFound error and the Desktop server would stop when setting up my Y!mail for the first time and Zimbra Desktop(ZD) was sync'ing up all the emails for the first time.

After repeating the setup a few times, realized that there was an old email with a worm/virus attachment, which the Microsoft OneCare software immediately detects and makes the msg unaccessible. ZD tries to open the downloaded message to add it to the redo log and fails. The ZD server abruptly stops here. The next challenge was to identify the message with the virus - based on the timestamp of the nearby messages found immediately before the failed one and the size of the failed message, was able to detect the message and delete it from Yahoo before starting ZD once again(only took about 2 hrs!)

I have the same issue with Ubuntu entrepid 64. After installing it sends a message saying it could not inject some widjets and some features could not be available. It closes and when I try to connect it says "Could not access Yahoo ! Zimbra Desktop"
I've already uninstalled it and installed it again, and still the same error
